Team RWB and Ironman Texas

Team RWB triathletes, friends, and family!
  WE ARE GOING TO BE AT IRONMAN TEXAS IN THE WOODLANDS, TX ON 21 MAY 2011! We are SO very excited about the Ironman Texas race weekend.  Not only do we have some of  our fast and amazing Team RWB Pro-Triathletes racing (Tim O'Donnell and Jessica Jacobs) and some of our awesome Team RWB age group athletes, we will also be OPERATING Run Aid Station #4!  Racers will come by the Team RWB aid station 3 times during the course of their 26.2 mile run and pursuit of the finish line.  This is OUR opportunity to motivate and inspire over 2800 athletes as they take on one the toughest endurance events out there!  We plan to make the Team RWB aid station the LOUDEST, MOST FUN, and MOST MEMORABLE aid station on the course!
  Why are we doing this?  Because Team RWB is about COMMUNITY and the Greater Houston area is home to a large number of Team RWB athletes and has an active advocate program in place.  By showing the community how much fun we can have, we also execute our mission and raise awareness about Team RWB! This is just another way for us to join with the community and with athletes to raise awareness and support for our wounded veterans!  And seriously, it's going to be FUN and gives YOU an opportunity to have a FRONT seat to what will be one of the most competitive Ironman races outside of the World Championship in Hawaii!! We want to make sure that we provide athletes like Tim O'Donnell and Jessica Jacobs with as much motivation and free speed possible each time they pass our aid station!! This will be Tim's first Ironman, and Jessica's first of 2011 (she won Ironman Florida in 2010!), and both are on the hunt to qualify for the Ironman World Championship.  This is just another GREAT reason to come out and support.
  If you'd like to help us out, please visit CLICK HERE and select “Team Red, White & Blue” from the drop down menu. The case-sensitive password is: teamRWB.  Pick a shift and get ready to have FUN!
  Notice, I mentioned we're excited about the WEEKEND.  Saturday will be a great party at the Team RWB aid station, and then on Sunday evening there will be an opportunity for all of us to gather together, EAT, celebrate the race, and learn more about what Team RWB is doing!  We'll also have some pretty sweet raffle prizes!  We're still finalizing the dinner details, but as soon as we have them all, you will get an invite! So, reserve some time on your schedule for Ironman Texas and let your friends and family know! Let's make this an AMAZING weekend!
Sincerely,
Team RWB Triathlon
